RESUMO

The occurrence of mosaic Down's syndrome with two independent Robertsonian translocation cell lines is very rare. Such a patient is reported here, in whom an unbalanced Robertsonian translocation between two chromosomes 21 was detected in the majority of cells. The patient also revealed a minor cell line with a second Robertsonian translocation involving a chromosome 21 and a 22. The chromosome translocations detected in this patient were de novo in origin.
